Verdict

Half of this field arrive on the back of wins, but it's still impossible to ignore THE BIG JETAWAY who created an excellent impression when going in at the first time of asking over fences at Sedgefield and still looks well ahead of his mark. Hat-trick seeking Wheelbahri is feared most now he has ironed out his jumping issues, although Here We Have It can have a say too.

  1. THE BIG JETAWAY (IRE)
  2. WHEELBAHRI
